20 years Golden Goal: Bierhoff's Monument
As the June 30 1996, changed the lives of Oliver Bierhoff fundamentally. With his golden goal in the European Championship final wrote today Team Manager history and secured Germany the third European title after 1972 and 1980th
Joachim Loew is his team manager Oliver Bierhoff currently prefer to avoid. ". I'll be glad when I do not hear the The Oliver told often enough," the coach said at the beginning of the week - and he grinned broadly. Already goalkeeping coach Andy Köpke had the team in a speech asked whimsically during Euro 2012, but please finally take the title: "I do not have to constantly talk about Germany's last European Championship victory."
Löw and Köpke speak of 30 June 1996 on which Oliver Bierhoff with his golden goal in the European Championship final against the Czech Republic (2: 1) has secured a firm place in German football history. Even today, 20 years later, the last German European title is inevitably linked with the name Bierhoff.
"Having achieved this goal, of course, an honor of which I am proud," the 48-year-old said a few days ago in the EM-quarters of the German national team in Evian, for the umpteenth time he talk about his feelings of that time should. "But," he intended to, "sometime after 20 years it is enough then. It is about time we write a new story."
Bierhoff's rise is closely linked to this goal
But as a story, it will no longer exist after the abolition of the rule in the year of 2004.Bierhoff, hitherto only reserve player, advanced from one to the other second hero."The Golden Goal has changed my life. Only then I have been fully recognized in Germany," he told the "Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung", after he had grown up as a footballer in Italy. He was pleased, "I had this good fortune to experience such a crucial moment in the history of football".
He did not "felt the great trust" under German coach Berti Vogts to the final, he recalled. But Vogts brought Bierhoff in the 69th minute for Mehmet Scholl and proved a golden touch. The scorer was like initially the Czech leadership by Patrick Berger (73), before in the 95th minute followed at London's Wembley Stadium the really big moment: a cross from Jurgen Klinsmann landed in the penalty area with Bierhoff, who turned left on its own axis and fired. He had "not thought in life that, goes in the ball."But goalkeeper Petr Kouba let slip the slightly deflected by Kullerball hands - Germany was the third time European champion.
Blackout the goal
He had a "three-minute blackout" after the hit, Bierhoff said later. It was something "incomprehensible". Such incomprehensible that Bierhoff "first time and last time" in his career, the jersey ripped from her body in ecstasy-mode. He had the "getting a bit ridiculous" found in other, yet somehow the "whole ballast ceased and there was pure joy" is. Only the next morning had become him realize "what effect our victory had".
Especially for Bierhoff himself. The angular and header strong striker who played in Italy in Ascoli, Udine at AC Milan and Verona, was now in his home country a large number. According to the 1998 World Cup took Bierhoff (70 matches, 37 goals) in the national team even the captaincy in 2014 he served as team manager for world titles at. But will remain forever a golden goal by 1996 - although Löw the story may not hear.

One night just for them
It was expected that France might strengthen a little more to the doubts generated from the first day. Of his three companions group, he played at face level. For its part Switzerland, with what is perhaps his best generation of talented players, he should step forward to prove to everyone, but especially herself, who know and can compete with any opponent. The 0-0 was lackadaisical, leaving to remember the shots on the posts Pogba and Payet, as well as the good performance of Sommer beside the pile of broken Tees Swiss.
No one, except perhaps the fans at the Lille Métropole, remember the duel between the hosts and their Central European neighbors. Quite the opposite will happen regarding the stake held in the Stade de Lyon. There Romania, which had shown a good tone in his two previous games, and Albania, which surprisingly had options until the end when he faced both Switzerland and France faced. Then weighed them inexperience, nerves betrayed them to define before the goalkeeper, a figure, the goalkeeper, which plunged them into sadness soon after beginning the day of its debut.
But they could still redeem himself. After decades of ostracism first to the Yugoslav power, then to the various rallies in Croatia, Serbia, Slovenia, and even Bosnia, Albanians were clearly the worst Balkan selection. Macedonia and Montenegro until they have had their moments. Albania no, never to machada two years ago when Portugal won 0-1. Even though the Portuguese have chronic problems in front of goal, it was still a surprise. There began as exciting as tortuous path that gave them in qualifying for the first big tournament selections in its history.
Until last night, when after the defeat against Switzerland (1-0) and France (2-0), they dreamed big goodbye. A goal to celebrate, a point to remember, a joy that evoke. Something deserved, for it fought for every ball as if it were the last. The lack of quality palliated with the order and illusion, scratching ankles, running down every ball with despair. This led to climax shortly before half - time. A ball hung from the right sector Memushaj reached the head of Armando Sadiku , who introduced the ball into the goal. The error will be as anecdotal Tatarusanu for them (not that Romanians), although it was essential for the arrival of the both.
Emotions boiled over in the stands since. Romania, who put in serious trouble both Swiss and the French, not found a way to penetrate the Albanian orderly behind. The men of De Biasi were to leave life not fit goal . So he was finally thereby achieving a victory that is already historical to be the biggest milestone ever achieved for its football. The supporters of Albania is jubilant after last night lived. His grand prize has been able to live together with his unthinkable until very recently. Not only they were classified: they have competed every encounter. The biggest thing is that the win could have a hidden prize. But if they have passed the second round or not will depend on what happens in the other groups. We have to wait until Wednesday. After decades longing to be here, what difference does another couple of days?

Poland is a typically European quipo who refuses to give up the only goal in four games out of a work of Shaquiri art. But the defensive organization is not its only strength. the coach Adam Nawałka is not afraid to play with two strikers as Lewandowski and Milik and cons are dangerous ".
"Dangerous too, although waves, is Portugal. Ronaldo played no role in 120 minutes against Croatia but it also speaks of the importance of the rest of the team. Fernando Santos is not afraid align enough players to stop the opponent 's attack and wait for their chance . Portugal should continue with this plan against Poland. You can also force Poland to look for plan B and increase the chances of counter with Ronaldo and Nani . "
